Project 82 Stalingrad class
Battlecruiser

There are obviously some major problems here. The chronologies for these vessels are incomplete, and the available date from apparently reliable sources is at time seriously inconsistent - as in, there are three dates reported for when Stalingrad was laid down, and sources disagree as to whether the third unit was named, and if so, what that name might be.
